You don’t have to have been young in the ’80s to know how buff Mickey Rourke was in benchmark movies like Diner, Body Heat and Rumble Fish, but if you were, you’ll be all the more dismayed atwhat he’s done to himself over the last 20 years.

Mickey Rourke plays a blinder! Was very impressed by this film contrary to my expectations... so many fight films have been released lately that i expected very little from "The Ram" but against all odds the movie proved to be a diamond in the rough! Randy "The Ram" a slightly washed up part time restler who was once a "GREAT" suddenly finds himself alone in the later years, with all the effects of the life he has been leading so far, and a struggle to regain some kind of relationship with his daughter. A wonderful storyline that deals with issues from parenting to conformity - watch it - love it, buy tissues ending requires trears to flow. Have Fun.
